Even when a sentence is started with 'shallow' or 'deep' use the
lowercase version to maintain consistency.

If you regularly create patches which require a Signed-off: line you may
want to make it your default to add that line. It also helps you not to forget
to add the -s/--signoff switch.

format-patch supports the format.headers configuration for adding
arbitrary email headers to the patches it outputs.  This patch adds
support for an --add-header argument which makes the same feature
available from the command line.  This is useful when the content of
custom email headers must change from branch to branch.

This patch has been sponsored by Grant Street Group

<title>Documentation: format-patch --root clarifications</title>

Users were confused about the meaning and use of the --root option.
Notably, since 68c2ec7 (format-patch: show patch text for the root
commit, 2009-01-10), --root has nothing to do with showing the patch
text for the root commit any more.

Shorten and clarify the corresponding paragraph in the DESCRIPTION
section, document --root under OPTIONS, and add an explicit note that
root commits are formatted regardless.

<title>format-patch: --numbered-files and --stdout aren't mutually exclusive</title>

<content type='text'>
For example:

    git format-patch --numbered-files --stdout --attach HEAD~~

will create two messages with files 1 and 2 attached respectively.
Without --attach/--inline but with --stdout, --numbered-files option
can be simply ignored, because we are not creating any file ourselves.
